YuvaRajkumar’s first look in yet-to-be-titled film is shrouded in mystery

YuvaRajkumar’s foray into Sandalwood has been confirmed with the launch of his first look poster on the birthday of his grandfather, Dr Rajkumar.

Sporting a rugged look with a spear in hand, YuvaRajkumar’s look in the as-yet-untitled debut to be directed by Puneeth, has a lot of takeaways, with an element of mystery woven all over.

The makers, who have released the first look with the working title, YR 01, have not revealed any other details. However, the poster has YuvaRajkumar giving out some mythical vibes, which hint at a historical period drama, which is expected to be made on a big scale. “At present, nothing much can be revealed about the plot,” says the director, who is working on a teaser that will be revealed after the lockdown is lifted.

“The teaser will give a glimpse of the characterisation, as well as how YuvaRajkumar has trained for the role,” he tells CE.

For YuvaRajkumar, who celebrated his birthday on April 23, the occasion turned more special with the release of the first look poster on Annavru’s birth anniversary. The actor, son of Raghavendra Rajkumar and brother of Vinay Rajkumar has his uncles, Shivarajkumar and Puneeth Rajkumar, to look up to in the film industry. Puneeth, who is making his directorial debut, has previously worked as an associate to Prashanth Neel in KGF Chapter 1.
